Ludicra - In Stable





Too bad this band is no more. Very few good female fronted Black Metal bands exist nowadays. However, to call this band Black Metal only is disrespectful for them. Their combination of crust punk, bits of thrash here and there, and at times a touch of classic rock is necessary to describe them. They manage to squeeze a myriad of melodies poured into one song, stay catchy, without conforming to the verse chorus norm. Heck, the whole album stray away from that and don't sound repetitive. The band doesn't shy away from melodies that are more suited for old heavy metal albums (this song sorts of has Control Denied's Expect The Unexpected). The lyrics too are also a fresh breathe from the regular, anger, Satan, sacrifice or suicides of conventional black metal. They are artsy but smart enough to stray away from hipster-esque poetry. Now go do yourself a favor and give this band more exposure.
